Paralympics Ireland, in partnership with Allianz, invited aspiring Para athletes and families from across Ireland to an Allianz NextGen event held at the Kingfisher Club, University of Galway last Saturday.

Paralympians Katie O’Brien and Shauna Bocquet along with up and coming sprint star Fionán Ruane, joined participants on the day, sharing their experiences and helping others explore where Para sport could take them.

John Mulligan went along to find out more…

Galway United Women are just one win away from qualifying for Europe for the first time in their history. 

On Saturday afternoon at 4.35, Phil Trill's side face Shelbourne at Eamon Deacy Park. 

A win for United will see them into the qualifying rounds of the UEFA Women's Europa Cup.

However, a draw or a win for Shelbourne will be enough for them to qualify. 

This makes Saturday's game one of the most important in the club's history. 

United Manager Phil Trill spoke to John Mulligan on Sunday Sport and they started by first talking about United's 2-1 win over Peamount that has set up next weekend's European Showdown.
